TULSA, Oklahoma – Tulsa's Friday Night Flights checked out two of the top games in the Tulsa area, and those teams certainly gave fans their money's worth.

William Goree came through for the Cardinals, scoring on a 4-yard run to put East Central up 14-10 and they would hang on for the victory.

East Central kept its undefeated record (now at 5-0) and will host Tulsa Central next.

Broken Arrow certainly got Muskogee's best shot, as the Tigers held off the Rougher in a crazy finish, 33-26 in overtime.

The Roughers got on the board first with an early touchdown, but Levi Coplin took the ensuing kickoff back for Broken Arrow to tie it up at 7.

The two teams traded scores until the game was tied again at 20 with eight minutes remaining.

Broken Arrow scored on an impressive 70-yard run, but missed the extra point, making it 26-20.

Muskogee responded with a score, and with a chance to seal the game, had its extra point blocked, forcing overtime.
